I have to say, the move to the new sim engine has been pretty awesome! I know that the games take a bit longer to watch, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The entire layout of the sim looks much better, and it’s a lot more fun to see the action happening on every play. You can see the ball move from dot to dot, you can see missed passes, you can see the length of punts and returns. It’s all really cool visual things that we were missing. I enjoy the scoreboard at the top as well. Plus, the games are pretty entertaining. You see a lot more long TD plays, which is exciting. In the old sim, it never felt like we saw that many 70 yard passes and whatnot. Now they’re becoming more commonplace, but not *too* commonplace. Yeah, I know that the running game has been a bit rough compared to the old sim, but that has a lot to do with the league needing to adjust to what’s more important in the new sim compared to the old one. It was never going to be a perfect transition, that’s for sure. But that’s where it's up to the GMs to really start to figure out the best strats for their teams. It’ll be fun to see how it shakes out! (226)
